With John Cena out, a lot of talent in the WWE locker room have been told that now is the time to step up and work their rear off to help the company. It was pretty much dictated that if there was ever a time to try and make yourself a star, this is the time, since the company doesn't expect Cena back until The Royal Rumble and they need everyone to work hard to fill his void.

Right message to send.

I think that's a tremendous message for WWE personnel at any time, but now that Cena will be out for six months, now would be the perfect time to step it up.

You can already see D-Bry, Punk, Ziggler, ADR, and some others stepping it up. The next few months are going to show us who the real future of the company is.

Ruthless agression!!!!!

Ok, I know this is a thread for something else, but I keep seeing that Cena pic in signatures^. Is he smoking something in that top right part of the image or what? It sure looks like he's got something in his mouth. Sorry, it has been bugging the hell out of me.

Looks like a toothpick from someplace like Sonic where they wrap some colored plastic string around the end of the toothpicks for color.

Good tangent.

Oh ok, I can see that. I kept thinking it was a half smoked something. Thanks.

In a way, This is a good thing, Yeah its bad to see Cena so badly injured but this is the time where the younger guys will get more of a spotlight.

How does someone "step up" in a fixed sport? I'm sure they mean bring your A-game in the ring when it comes to performance but I'm sure the talent is already willing to do that anyway. More like the writers and top level officials backstage should step their game up by trying to push and highlight newer stars without Cena there in the spotlight. Show people that there are other people in the company that can be stars because the talent can only do so much, it's all about the booking and the story lines they construct for people. Promos are pretty much scripted to a tee with few exceptions these days.

I would think maybe prove why you should be used and even if your in a short match make it as good as you can instead of just getting through it, Maybe go to the writers with ideas and maybe play your gimmick off more and make it look better not really sure.
